Can you guess what toy won the 2015 Product of the Year toy award from Creative Child Awards and Dr. Toy’s 100 Best Toys of 2015?

The answer is SleeperHero.Anna Richardson and her sister, Meggie Hunley, created the perfect book and doll to help children and parents get the rest they need.

SleeperHero is a super powered doll that comes with a storybook. This unique duo helps children (and parents) conquer their bedtime challenges. The book is a story about a boy that struggles with staying in his bed at night. That is until he is introduced to a doll, SleeperHero.

Tis the season to count your blessings and to spread some holiday cheer! If you have some family members on your shopping list that you still need to shop for, don’t fret! Audrey and I created a list of our favorite finds so you don’t have to worry about searching for this year’s top picks! Enjoy!

The holidays are coming upon us at breakneck speed and there’s just no escaping. Sure, it still feels like school just started and Labor Day just passed, but get with it!!! It’s November already and there’s a lot to do and plan. Presents, Thanksgiving dinner, decorations. All of this is a huge part of our holiday traditions. Another big part has to be getting the kids some beautiful holiday time outfits. The boys are always a lot easier…dress shirt, slacks, maybe a sweater. They look cute, and let’s be honest…the really don’t care what they have on. My daughter, on the other hand, is a little bit different. She’s 10 and very fancy. She’s very particular and so is my wife. Getting her dress is an epic adventure filled with twists, turns, and a myriad of options. It makes my head spin.

Girls Dress Shop is an online boutique that produces high quality dresses for girls. Founded on the belief that children should look like children, and that their clothing should be an expression of themselves. They provide beautiful, trend right, yet age appropriate styles for girls from newborn to age 12.

When we showed the dresses to Natalie, she could not make a decision…she loved EVERYTHING. It was really sweet to see. So excited, so innocent. Once we whittled the wants down to her #1 and told her we would be getting it for her to wear during the Holidays, she was over-the-moon. Take a look, it’s a great dress, perfect for the time and her age, right! What do you think??

My little girl!!!

I just love the concept behind Girls Dress Shop, don’t you?? Take a look:

“At GirlsDressShop, we love to make moments. We believe in sidewalk chalk masterpieces, Saturday afternoon tea parties, and epic blanket forts. We think twirling in a favorite new dress is a totally worthwhile way to spend an afternoon, and — having a pretty new dress now and then is a girl’s right!

In her gorgeous new dress from GirlsDressShop, she can dazzle on the dance floor, make her grandmother smile at a family dinner, amaze the audience at her choir concert, or just feel more confident on her first day back to school. We want to share in all of those moments that make your daughter extraordinary.”

That sounds just about right, doesn’t it? These dresses look great, we all can appreciate the holidays, all the while have our girls dress like young ladies. Not like mini-women. I love it and I love the idea of it. On top of this, there’s also a great selection of high quality, really beautiful dresses, with very reasonable prices for such quality to talk about and appreciate.

Just take a look at these wonderful dress options! There are many, many more!

Well, what do you think? Gorgeous, fun, perfect, right? The experience was so easy online, it’s almost too good to be true. The dress came fast and in perfect condition, ready to be worn. Natalie couldn’t wait to try it on, and we couldn’t wait to see her in it.

Founded by concerned parents with a child that has allergies, the AllerblingTM wristband is a unique medical ID bracelet, which is customizable by you, at any time, based on your child’s changing food allergic conditions.

Founders Hsinhan and Qunli Wu had there son Derek tested for allergies after little Derek’s projectile vomiting of cow’s milk and a skin rash after eating eggs and certain snacks. After a barrage of tests, it was found that Derek was allergic to eggs and peanuts, among other things. After doing some research, they learned that a peanut allergy is one of the most severe food allergies. From that moment on, they examined every label on every food package and trained Derek to ask if food given to him contained peanuts.

The EpiPen became a necessary accomplice. There were many big questions that would have to be answered. Could we find a preschool that cared or were food allergy aware? What if there was a substitute teacher? Could he ever go to a friend’s house for a playdate? To birthday parties? To the play ground? When we traveled away from home. After some brainstorming, they came up with a solution!

Allerbling was born!

Allerbling is a visual educational tool and a conversation piece that has the potential to save children’s lives by raising awareness of a child’s food allergies. Allerbling is cute and approachable, so kids will want to wear it. Yet it is clearly marked as a medical product for children’s caregivers. It displays the iconic symbols of the food products that are risky to the children, so their teachers and caregivers can be constantly reminded at a glance. We believe the Allerbling wristband will help young children, ages three and up; as they learn to read and talk about the ingredients in the food they eat; and what is not safe for them. It is a product that reduces children’s health risk and that is no child’s play!

This is so amazingly perfect. Make it known your child has allergies but make it look great so they don’t feel funny about it! They probably will even love wearing it, like my daughter does!! It’s a great idea that’s a long time coming with more and more children seemingly having allergies. I can’t say enough about the design and the overall thought and consideration that went into this.

I’m sure you have questions…and they have answers! Makes a lot of sense once you take a look at it.

I think all parents that have children with allergies can appreciate this and really should consider giving it a shot. As parents, we want our children to be safe. When your child is in school, on playdates, in summer camp, or just hanging out at the playground, Allerbling can be your silent partner that informs and reminds others about your children’s food allergic condition.
